Yes, from identifying the corrosion mechanism to recommending protective measures or alternative materials.
Materials expertise for the energy sector
Energy equipment is exposed to severe stresses. Understanding material behaviour is essential to its reliability and service life.
Corrosion and in-service degradation
Identifying the corrosion mechanism allows the right protection to be selected or the material to be replaced with a more durable solution.
Fracture investigation and mechanical failure
Fracture analysis identifies the actual cause of failure: fatigue, overload, a material defect or progressive in-service degradation.
Ageing and service life
Assessing material ageing helps plan replacements, optimise maintenance and safeguard plant operation.
